Rating and Reviews (Monthly)
This chart shows Wave Break's Steam rating and reviews from June 2021 to December 2023. Steam's rating is in a narrow range going from 92.4% (October 2021) to 87.9% (July 2023).
With 84 reviews, Wave Break might be a minor indie success if it was made quickly. The graph seems to be a long tailed distribution. That sometimes means that the marketing efforts were concentrated on the game launch, and that there was no major update or discounts after.

Time Played
This chart displays the number of hours played in Wave Break, showing a comparison between positive and negative reviews. The time played is decent, reaching 6 hours in the 80th percentile.
The negative reviews play time is 3.8 times lower than the positive reviews median play time. When the negative review time is low (median : 59 minutes), it can be a sign that the game crashes on some systems or that players misunderstood the nature of the game (Does the Steam page clearly explain it, with gifs and a gameplay video ?). It can also mean that some players were somehow offended by Wave Break and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might help understanding the issue.
